You can use "Group By" in the query editor.
In order to create base code, you can choose to sum the "Error" column and then adjust the generated code to the code below.

Source = Input,
#"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(Source, {"Order #"}, {{"Error Count", each List.NonNullCount([Error]), Int64.Type}})
in
#"Grouped Rows"mumair

I tried to do that, but it wouldn't let me. That is because the error column is text, so it is not letting me use the sum operator

Ah, forgot to tell. Sure you will get errors at first, just ignore these and adjust the code, then you'll be fine.

One last question. I want to either append this column to the original table, or create a new table without altering the first table. How do I do this?
